I had a HR phone call, then met with the managing director. The managing director seemed rushed and more focused on how long I've been doing this, not so much my past experiences. It was nice overall, but I wish we could have used the full time instead of feeling rushed.

The hiring process happens all in one day, it's split into 3 parts: first, they'll tell you about the company and ask you stuff to see if you know its history, structure, and business. Then, there's a group assessment where you'll get a question (try to estimate without data if you can) and you'll present your work. The last part is one-on-one interviews where they might ask technical questions about general accounting and accounting principles.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • What makes up the balance sheet?
  • How does purchasing a piece of machinery affect the balance sheet?
  • OIC: Accounting principles?
